Receiving stereo and bilingual programmes
Your recorder is equipped with a Sound-Multiplex decoder (A2)
and a Digital stereo sound decoder (NICAM) as well, making

received will be displayed on the TV screen for a few seconds.
To listen to a stereo programme, press AUDIO until HIFI L
R appears on the screen.

or HIFI R appears on the screen (as required).

To record stereo and bilingual programmes (A2)
Stereo programmes are automatically recorded in stereo on the

on the normal audio track.
To record NICAM stereo and bilingual programmes
The NICAM audio programme is recorded on the Hi-Fi audio
